Plot: Crockett (Josh Holloway) and Tubbs (Taye Diggs) are at the tail end of an overnight stakeout outside of the hideout of a known drug dealer. As the sun rises, Switek (Brad William Henke) and Zito (Troy Garity) arrive to relieve them as Crockett has an appointment to meet with his soon to be ex-wife and her lawyers regarding the custody agreement regarding their son. At the meeting he sees his ex Caroline (Amanda Righetti) for the first time in a long while and is overwhelmed with feelings for her. He asks her if they can try to start again. Her lawyers immediately object, but Caroline tells them they're fired and leaves to get lunch with Crockett.
Meanwhile, the dealer finally leaves his hideout, only to be immediately gunned down. The shooter quickly speeds away from the scene. Switek and Zito give chase in the surveillance van, but the are not able to catch up and the shooter gets away. They put out an APB on the getaway vehicle and head back to check on the dealer, who they find dead. Not long after, a squad car reports seeing the getaway vehicle outside of a motel near the beach. Tubbs goes to investigate the motel with Trudy (Megalyn Echikunwoke), but don't find the shooter. They do however find some guns and a notebook containing what appears to be a hit list. Crockett and Caroline are in bed when there is a knock at the door. It's Tubbs and Lt. Castillo (Andy Garcia). They show him the hit list and tell him that six of the eight names on the list are already dead, and that one of the two remaining names is Crockett himself.
At OCB, Gina (Katrina Law) and Castillo pull up DEA files on the names on the hit list. Everyone aside from Crockett was a mid-level drug dealer. Fingerprints collected from the guns in the motel room turn out to belong to a hitman named Carlos Mendez. Castillo recognizes the name from his time with the DEA and immediately orders Crockett to get his family and take them to a safe house. Crockett insists that he can protect his own family and doesn't need to hide in a safe house. Castillo insists and personally escorts Crockett to his boat to get clothes, and tells Switek and Zito to collect Crockett's wife Caroline and their son and take them to the safe house. Meanwhile Trudy is going through the files on Carlos Mendez and finds a connection to escaped drug kingpin Calderone. Mendez (Gabriel Chavarria) spots Crockett and Castillo at the marina and opens fire on them. Castillo shoves Crockett out of the way, taking a bullet in the process. Mendez flees the marina.
Castillo is taken to the hospital. The bullet thankfully just hit him in the shoulder. In Castillo's hospital room, the vice squad discusses the hit list. Trudy has found ties between Calderone and all six of the dead dealers on the hit list. Crockett and Tubbs decide to track down the final name on the list, Linus Oliver (CeeLo Green). They find him conducting business at his usual nightclub and convince him to set up a meeting with Mendez at the club. Crockett then goes to see his wife and son at the safe house. He tells them that everything will be alright. The rest of the Vice squad waits for Mendez to arrive at the club to meet Linus. When Mendez arrives, they arrest him. Tubbs calls Crockett and lets him know that they caught Mendez. Crockett tells Caroline and his son that they caught the bad guy and that it is safe to go home now.
Back at OCB, Tubbs aggressively interrogates Mendez, but Mendez doesn't give anything up. Castillo interrupts the interrogation to tell Tubbs that Linus has been found shot dead in his car. Tubbs realizes that there must be another assassin working the hit list, and that Crockett is now the only target left. Tubbs tries calling Crockett, but he doesn't answer his phone. Tubbs then speeds across the city toward Caroline's house.
When Crockett enters the house with Caroline and his son. Crockett pulls his son out of the way just as the assassin begins firing. Tubbs rushes into the house to help Crockett as the hitman crashes through a window to escape, only to find a phalanx of Metro-Dade police cars waiting for him. He opens fire on them, and they quickly gun him down. Caroline tells Crockett that things aren't going to work out between them. She'll always love him, but his dangerous life is not conducive to raising their son. Crockett tells her that he understands and he'll call her lawyers in the morning to tell them the divorce is back on. Meanwhile at OCB, Mendez has finally cracked under questioning by Castillo. Mendez tells Castillo that Calderone is in The Bahamas.
